Review Centre: 1940s Era Musicians & Bands

"Feet tapped, eyes shone, hands clapped and hips and heads rolled as the brilliance of the great song writers Gershwin, Porter, Warren, Berlin and others became the hymns of this Saturday evening. But light-hearted as most of the music was, there was contrast in the emotive classic 'Every Time we say Goodbye' sung by the nightingale Gaylene Parish (close your eyes and it was Ella Fitzgerald)."

"I booked The Crotchet Club for my wedding. They were brilliant! They were hugely accommodating and I had excellent communication with them prior to the big day. We were able to choose songs that I liked from their extensive repertoire. As three musicians trained at the Royal Academy their playing was impeccable and helped bring a jazzy, fun vibe to the event. Several of my guests are musicians and commented on the band’s excellent performance. I would not hesitate to book this band again for another event. Finally, our wedding breakfast overran slightly and yet the band kindly stayed a little longer to accommodate this. Very happy with my choice to go with them!"

"We had a Jazz trio for our wedding reception in a stretch tent and the music perfectly complemented the relaxed vibe and rural setting. Professional throughout, from booking to the end of the event. I would happily recommend. "

"Great! Your performance was great! I personally found it a pity that the music outside wasn't as audible, so you got less attention than you deserved. Fortunately, that improved later in the evening and there was even some dancing. "

"I hired the L.A Jazz band for my dads funeral. My dad knew his prognosis as was adamant it was to be a celebration of life for him. With the help of the band - we made this happen. I had positive feedback from friends and family. The band are extremely talented and professional. They ensured the service was upbeat with the music which helped to lift our spirits. I know my dad would have loved them and I’m sure he looked down on us with a smile that day. Thank-you L.A Jazz band. Can’t recommend you enough. (10 / 10) "

"Bertram & Kadi truly tied our tranquil cottage wedding together. Their music created exactly the atmosphere we had hoped for - sweet, playful, and effortlessly elegant. We loved working with them beforehand to put together a setlist of our favourite jazz standards, and they even learned a song without sheet music online so we could listen to our special song on our special day. We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful duo."

"The Jazz Kings, consistently deliver exceptional jazz and blues performances that captivate audiences. Their musical prowess, combined with their light-hearted humour, creates an unforgettable and highly entertaining experience. I have personally witnessed The Jazz Kings' ability to engage and mesmerize audiences with their repertoire of standard jazz and blues classics, as well as their unique arrangements and original compositions. Their dedication to preserving the essence of these genres while infusing their artistic interpretations showcases their extraordinary talent and musicianship. Moreover, The Jazz Kings' collaboration with the resident guest vocalist Nicole Parker-Brown adds depth and versatility to their performances. Nicole's stunning vocals seamlessly blend with the band's instrumental prowess, creating a harmonious and captivating musical experience."

"Melisma Manouche were absolutely superb. They played the perfect sound for the party. So many of my friends wanted to know where we had found them and were very interested in hearing them play again. Each song was applauded and at the end of their session it was very clear that the party wanted them to carry on playing! Brilliant, highly recommended for every occasion."
